This is for professional careers in pity only (Ph.D. cum Pity).


During these dark times of the Winter Solstice, we don't need pseudo complainers.

Be judicious and artful with the suffering  
No over-the-top whimpering

Only spiritually real, authentic self-pity scenarios should apply.


No dealers, please


Can you be a member of a church and be miserable? Hell, yes!

We're aware of the existential dilemma, that if you're happy, you're probably feeling very alone, but please —!— Don't just become genuinely unhappy so that you can "fit in" with the tenor of the times and "have lasting companionship."

This isn't fair to the people who have really worked diligently to perfect their skills of sorrow and self pity — not just Jews & Catholics, but all denominations.

We ask for sincere, dedicated, truly miserable people. Like yourself!


Chapters are forming in all major cities. PoorMeClub.com™ will accept PayPal™ and MasterCard™


  Thank you! Bond with others and share the unhappiness
which only true solidarity can bring
